Your intention doesn't really matter because it doesn't change the fact that the visualization is intransparent.

It's not even all EU members.

Just state what you are showing. That's all we're asking.

Even that isn't quite it. I mean, Russia's got the largest population in Europe, and it's not in there. Turkey is the second-most-populous country with territory in Europe, though the bulk of that is outside Europe. Ukraine's not in there.

It's like "some but not all of the EU plus some other countries in Europe, like Serbia and the UK". They've got Estonia and Latvia, but not Lithuania, which isn't something that I'd expect to see too often.
